Meet the Team

The Plumstead Make Merry is run by a team of big-hearted volunteers who are passionate about the area and its local community. Forming the Plumstead Make Merry Team, they work hard to ensure the festival takes place every year, meeting regularly in the run up to the next event.

To contact any member of the Team or to find out how you can join, please email info@plumsteadmakemerry.co.uk

Adam Boal (Chair)

Adam grew up in Eltham and now lives locally, he and many of his local friends remember the Make Merry fondly. His friends are delighted he’s gotten involved in running the event and have even promised to volunteer some time themselves in future years! Professionally Adam is a community engagement and physics outreach specialist, designing and delivering exciting science-y events and opportunities for all.

On the day of the festival you will find Adam making himself useful across the site and keeping an eye on logistics, volunteers and making sure everyone is having a lovely time!
